About MickusProjects

A broad agenda for what we think design can do today.

Mickus Projects is a furniture design studio founded in 2006 in Brooklyn by Ben K. Mickus, and currently based in the San Francisco Bay Area. Our products harness the sensory experience created by the interplay between unique materials. Our passion is craftsmanship enhanced by digital technology.

The studio’s design process is set up around a Venn diagram of research, collaboration, and experimental design. We begin each project with a deep investigation into materials and form, and develop designs in collaboration with specialists and local craftsmen.

Sustainability and new fabrication techniques are inherent in the Mickus Projects M.O. We search for clever ways to minimize the environmental impact of our products by calling attention to a sophisticated logic and intrinsic beauty.

Mickus Projects creates objects whose details mix function and flirtation. Our look-at-me attitude of form-making is imbued with a broad agenda for what we think design can do today. Once we have your attention, prepare for an experience.

Welcome to Mickus Projects! By purchasing a product here, you are investing in sophisticated, sustainable design. Each Mickus Projects piece is assembled by hand, from locally sourced and locally fabricated materials. We incorporate digital techniques into every step of the design and production process, but our production runs are intentionally limited. Each piece is numbered and signed with a date of completion on a Mickus Projects label of authenticity, found on the underside of the piece. Your feedback is always appreciated, so if you have any questions or comments, feel free to contact us.

Returns and exchanges

All Mickus Projects items are custom and built to order, so returns are not generally accepted unless the product received is defective. Please notify Mickus Projects within 7 days of receipt of the item to discuss any problems which may require it to be returned. Shipping charges are non-refundable and return shipping charges are the responsibility of the customer.

Payment

All major credit cards with Direct Checkout, Paypal or Etsy giftcards

Shipping

Because our products are made-to-order, shipment will be 4-10 weeks from the date of order, depending on the item. Within the United States, furniture pieces are shipped by a furniture moving company, which has door-to-door, blanket-wrapped transport. Lighting pieces are shipped by Fedex or commercial Freight carriers. Contact us for details on international shipments
